SD and NB should be changed to some cool effects that influence how you play, but they should be minimal dps increases (much like they are now). I think that is the idea behind them in the first place, they just fail to deliver. An example (that is unlikely to happen) would be to have SD make starfall 40y aoe centered on the boomkin like in WoD. It's a cool effect that makes you feel more powerful (much like FoE) without actually increasing numbers and alters how you play.
